ADJUSTMENTS
The machine that you have bought allows
for certain adjustments that will permit
you to use it to its full potential.
Saeco Adapting System
Coffee is a natural product and its char-
acteristics may change according to its
origin, blend and roast. The Saeco coee
machine is equipped with a self-adjusting
system that allows the use of all types of
coee beans available on the market (not
including avored or carmelized).
• The machine automatically adjusts
itself in order to optimize the extrac-
tion of the coffee, ensuring perfect
compression of the beans to obtain a
creamy espresso coee that is able to
release all the aromas, regardless of
the type of coee used.
• The optimization process is a learning
process that requires the brewing of a
certain number of coees to allow the
machine to adjust the compactness of
the ground coee.
• Attention should be given to special
blends, which require grinder adjust-
ments in order to optimize the extrac-
tion of the coee (see section "Coee
Grinder Adjustment").
Coffee Grinder Adjustment
Warning! The grinder adjust-
ment knob, inside the coee
bean hopper, must be turned only
when the grinder is working. Do not
pour ground and/or instant coffee
into the coee bean hopper.
